What a great piece of early Americana! This pick is very early, appears to have the original handle, has copper wedges/rivets for tightening the handle to the head and may be marked on both sides on the underside (see pics). I believe both sides are stamped or marked with something and cleaning with a wire brush may very well reveal the truth-but I\'m not doing it. I love it just the way it is. I\'vesold a couple others like this in the past and one side often has a numeric stamping indicating the head weight.Has a great, tight, weathered handle that I would not be afraid to use, but we all know that would be irresponsible to do with such a wonderful piece of our country\'s early history. The pick is 32\" long and the head is 15\" wide.
